Goulburn Race 8

Goulburn Soldiers Club `We Will Remember Them' Pace

Prize Money: $11,832

SUNSET STRIDE (5) is back from a break of five-and-a-half months and looks to be right up to the mark following a recent trial win. Well-placed to take this out. PLAYA BLANCA (1) is better than her last-start seventh over 1720m at Penrith. Worth another chance. MIKIBEQUICK (8) could only finish seventh over 1740m at Riverina Paceway most recently. Open to improvement and is in the mix. Something for the Multiples: TOOLIJOOA BEACH (7)

Didn't do much at the last run, surrendered the lead and finished 5th (Fr3) over 2260m after showing early speed at Bathurst was 2nd-5.25 at the bell, beaten 8 m by Betting Ranger (2:43.60) in NR up to 70 on April 15 at $10. Before that 8th (Sr2) over 1730m at Bathurst was 6th-14.2 at the bell, beaten 5.5 m by Borrowed Time (2:04.30) in NR up to 63 on April 8 at $11. Others read better. Not keen.

Last start was well back in the run when 9th (Fr6) over 1609m at Menangle, at the bell was 8th-19 beaten 19 m by Rivera Lou (1:51.80) in 4-020yo+ 0W/20K Stakes on April 18 at $23. Before that, was driven from back in the field when 8th (Fr7) over 1609m at Menangle, beaten 25 m by Soho Gunslinger (1:51.30) in NR up to 80 on April 11 at $41. Rates highly on best form and expected to do much better.

First up. At the last run she won by 10 m when quickly away, (Fr8) at Menangle (1:51.60) beating Tapaganoosh in 4yo+ NR up to 66 on November 8 at $3 at the bell was leading 4m 2WNC. Likely to measure up.

Chasing a hat-trick. Last start posted a big 4 m win (Sr4) at Canberra (2:38.10) beating Fliptop Bottleshop in NR up to 60 on April 19 at $9 at the bell was 4th-12.2. Hard to leave out on current form. Racing in great heart and expected to be in the finish again.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 4 m seventh behind Scheming at Riverina Paceway over 1740m NR up to 90 last start. Before that was beaten 4 metres fourth at Menangle over 1609m in NR 72 to 75 on April 14. Capable of a better showing.

Expected Settling Position: Leader
